Just weeks after delivering her third child, Amber Becker woke up to numbness on her left side. The probem didn't go away, and after an emergency room visit and multiple hospitals, doctors struggled to find a definitive diagnosis. She began rehabilitation at Madonna's Omaha Campus and was eventually diagnosed with a rare form of multiple sclerosis. She continues to make huge strides in rehabilitation, her family motivating her hard work and positivity.

Caleb Tobias of Clearwater, Kansas, has defied all the odds stacked against him after a devastating car crash on March 6. The teenager arrived at Madonna’s Lincoln Campus after 10 surgeries, extremely weak, visually impaired, but his strong faith intact. After six months of intensive rehabilitation, Caleb, wearing his signature red shoes, met his goal to walk out the doors of Madonna.
